Applications Open – Research, Trial & Pilot Project Program
apply to RTPP 2026 as a startup or innovator team
The Research, Trial & Pilot Project Program (RTPP 2026) is now open for applications from biotechnology and life sciences ventures seeking to conduct research, validation, trials, and pilot projects within Saudi Arabia’s scientific, clinical, and industrial infrastructure.
RTPP provides a structured pathway for startups to generate Saudi-based evidence, conduct feasibility and performance studies, initiate clinical or field trials, and align research activities with Saudi ethical and regulatory frameworks.
Through facilitated access to laboratories, research centers, hospitals, and industry partners, ventures de-risk their technologies and prepare for regulatory approval, manufacturing translation, and market deployment in the Kingdom.
The program bridges innovation with execution – transforming promising science into validated, locally anchored solutions for healthcare, industry, and sustainability. RTPP strengthens Saudi Arabia’s national translational capacity while enabling global innovators to establish long-term research and development presence in the Kingdom.
Apply now to anchor your research, trials, and validation journey in Saudi Arabia’s growing biotechnology ecosystem.
